Hi Marisa,

When reading in Unicode files you to use binfile as opposed to file.  
You also need to set the unicodeText property of the field.  So I think 
the above would look something like this (not tested):

set the unicodeText of field "Arabic" to URL "binfile:arabic.rtf"

For more tips on unicode click on the "Topics" button in the Revolution 
help window and type unicode into the search field (with "Filter with:" 
selected).  This provides some useful information.
